Abstract

The exploration of highly efficient nonprecious metal bifunctional electrocatalysts to boost oxygen evolution reaction and oxygen reduction reaction is critical for development of high energy density metal‐air batteries. Herein, a class of CuS/NiS 2 interface nanocrystals (INs) catalysts with atomic‐level coupled nanointerface, subtle lattice distortion, and plentiful vacancy defects is reported. The results from temperature‐dependent in situ synchrotron‐based X‐ray absorption fine spectroscopy and electron spin resonance spectroscopy demonstrate that the lattice distortion of 14.7% in CuS/NiS 2 caused by the strong Jahn–Teller effect of Cu, the strong atomic‐level coupled interface of CuS and NiS 2 domains, and distinct vacancy defects can provide numerous effective active sites for their excellent bifunctional performance. A liquid Zn‐air battery with the CuS/NiS 2 INs as air electrode displays a large peak power density (172.4 mW cm−2), a high specific capacity (775 mAh g Zn−1), and long cycle life (up to 83 h), making the CuS/NiS 2 INs among the best bifunctional catalysts for Zn‐air battery. More remarkably, the flexible CuS/NiS 2 INs‐based solid‐state Zn‐air batteries can power the LED after twisting, making them be promising in portable and wearable electronic devices.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
